I first tasted Brooklyn Commune’s food at a benefit event. Surrounded by elegant, over-thought dishes, Brooklyn Commune stood apart with shots of tomato soup accompanied by bites of bacon grilled cheese sandwiches. The soup was essential to cut the chill of the cold rainy day and the crisp, buttery sandwich bite melted in my mouth. […]

The following is a post written by Mariana Trulli. It even includes a delicious butter chicken recipe - relaxed dinner with a lovely glass of Australian wine this weekend anyone? SophiexxAll Around The WorldPairing the right wine with an international dish is more art than science, and you don’t have to be an accomplished sommelier to get it right. With just some basic knowledge of the different types of wines, your tastebuds will help you make the right choice. You also don’t have to be a master chef to cook up international culinary delights that will tantalize the palate. You just need the right recipe. The bottom line is that the right wine with the right recipe is always a match made in heaven.A Bite of Italian with the Right WineGnocchi is a traditional type of Italian pasta that has been created and enjoyed since Roman times. Not only is it delicious, you don’t need a lot of ingredients or gadgets to make it. All you need is some baking potatoes, flour, eggs and a pinch of salt. Bake the potatoes and mash them. Mix them with the flour, eggs and salt until you have firm dough. Divide the dough into one inch pieces and boil in water for two to three minutes. When the gnocchi float to the surface, you’ll know they’re done. Top it off with a brown butter, sage and parmesan sauce. Just prepare the sauce in a skillet and pour over the gnocchi.Since Australian wines like merlot have less tannin and structure than some other wines, they are well-matched with hearty dishes like potatoes and pastas. Merlot is soft with black cherry and plum flavours that complement the flavour of gnocchi. It also goes well with another traditional Italian dish known as puttanesca. Puttanesca is also easy to whip up in the kitchen. Sauté some chopped garlic in olive and add some chopped plum tomatoes along with black and green olives. Boil up some linguine and pour the mix on top of the pasta. Top with fresh basil, and you’ve got a gastronomic masterpiece.Warm up with Boeuf BourguignonThis traditional French stew is pure comfort food. All you need is some chuck steak, flour, butter, small button mushrooms, bacon, spring onions, carrots, red wine and beef stock. Cut the meat into 1-inch chunks and brown on all sides in a skillet. Mix and sauté all of the other ingredients and bake in the oven for 45 minutes. Garnish with some roughly chopped parsley and dig in. Red burgundies are ideal for boeuf bourguignon. They are medium bodied with aromas and flavours of strawberries and raspberries that make the flavour of this dish pop. Red burgundies offer subtle tannins and acidity for balance. One of the best Australian wines for boeuf bourguignon is the Australian red labelled Shiraz. Malbecs also go well with any braised beef. These wines are full bodied with earthly and woody flavours.Create the Popular Indian Koyla Butter ChickenTake the taste of chicken to a whole new level with this recipe for koyla butter chicken by celebrity chef Sanjeev Kapoor. Although there’s a long list of ingredients, prep time is just 20 minutes and cook time is just 30 minutes. Here’s a list of the ingredients:2 tablespoons of butter1 piece of coal2 teaspoons red chilli powder2 teaspoons ginger paste3 teaspoons lemon juice8 black peppercorns6 cloves2 bay leaves3 cinnamon stick1/2 cup chopped tomatoes and onions2 tablespoons of turmeric powder3/4 cup yoghurt1 tablespoon dried fenugreek10 garlic cloves2 tablespoons honeyhandful of chopped almonds1 cup milk3 tablespoons creamMarinate chicken with red chilli powder, lemon juice and garlic. Grind the cloves, cinnamon sticks, bay leaf and peppercorns into a fine powder. Add the ground powder to the yoghurt along with the cumin and turmeric powder. Add this mixture to the chicken.Place onions, garlic cloves, nuts, honey ginger, red chilli powder and tomatoes in a pressure cooker. Tie muslin cloth around the remaining cinnamon sticks, peppercorns and bay leaf. Seal it to make a bundle known as a potli.Add the milk and potli and pressure cook for 30 minutes. Let this delicious meal sit for about half an hour and serve with one of your favourite Australian wines. While you’re enjoying a great international meal, it’s great to celebrate your heritage with a local wine. A Pignot Grigio always goes great with chicken. It’s a citrusy wine that is perfect for casual dining and summer quaffing.Serving a tasty international meal along with the right Australian wines is a tradition to be celebrated.

In passerella e ormai in ogni negozio, comprese le catene low cost, il trend del bianco e nero sta spopolando: pantaloni, camicie, giacche, abiti con stampe bicolor a righe e poi maxi o mini, poi pattern di vario genere e persino fiori. Dunque perché non seguire il trend anche per le scarpe? Magari conservando un minimo di senso della misura; quindi senza indossare contemporaneamente un pantalone a righe con zeppe...
